Definitions
- the present disclosure generally relates to a fitting for use with strut channel.
- Strut channel or channel framing also referred to as simply “strut,” is used in the construction and electrical industries for structural support, often for supporting wiring, plumbing, or mechanical components such as air conditioning or ventilation systems.
- Strut is usually formed from metal sheet, folded over into an open channel shape with interned lips to provide additional stiffness and as a location to mount fittings for securing one or more components to the strut.
- the conventional way to attach multiple pieces of strut is to weld the strut together, which is time consuming and costly.
- these attached pieces of strut cannot be easily disassembled or otherwise changed, such as at the job site, to account for changes during the course of installing strut channel.
- a fitting for connecting first and second pieces of strut to one another wherein each piece of strut includes an elongate strut body having opposite longitudinal ends, a length extending between the opposite longitudinal ends, and a fitting side defining an external fitting groove extending lengthwise of the body, comprises a first clip arm configured to extend into the external fitting groove of the first piece of strut.
- a second clip arm is configured to extend into the external fitting groove of the second piece of strut.
- a central portion is connected to and extends between the first and second clip arms. The central portion includes a first dimple configured to receive a tool and a second dimple configured to receive a tool.
- a fitting for connecting first and second pieces of strut to one another wherein each piece of strut includes an elongate strut body having opposite longitudinal ends, a length extending between the opposite longitudinal ends, and a fitting side defining an external fitting groove extending lengthwise of the body, comprises a first clip arm configured to extend into the external fitting groove of the first piece of strut.
- a second clip arm is configured to extend into the external fitting groove of the second piece of strut.
- a central portion is connected to and extends between the first and second clip arms. The central portion includes a first pocket configured to receive a tool at a first longitudinal end and a second pocket configured to receive a tool at a second longitudinal end opposite the first longitudinal end.

- a fitting for mounting together strut channel (also referred to in the below disclosure as simply “strut”) is generally indicated at 10 .
- the fitting 10 is configured for use with strut having a fitting attachment structure, as described in detail below.
- the fitting 10 is generally in the form of a clip that is adapted to connect two pieces of strut to one another in a side-by-side arrangement.
- the clip 10 is configured for use with strut having a dovetail fitting attachment structure, although other fitting and fitting attachment structure configurations are within the scope of the present invention.
- the clip 10 comprises an elongate body having a central portion 12 and two clip arms or jaws 14 (broadly, coupling components) extending outward from opposite sides of the body.
- the clip arms 14 are configured to engage a strut fitting attachment structure, as described below.
- the central portion 12 of the clip 10 is generally planar.
- the clip arms 14 extend at an angle (e.g., about 45 degrees) relative to the central portion 12 .
- the clip 10 may be formed from metal, such as steel, spring steel, or aluminum, or from other materials.
- the central portion 12 of the clip 10 includes first and second dimples 16 , 18 at spaced locations.
- Each of the dimples 16 , 18 is sized and shaped for providing a surface for catching the end of a tool (e.g., a flathead screwdriver).
- the first dimple 16 has a shallow end 24 and a deep end 26 ( FIG. 5 ).
- the deep end 26 is closer to a first end 28 of the clip 10 than the shallow end 24 .
- a wall 30 at the deep end 26 of the dimple 16 forms an abutting surface for catching the tool.
- the wall 30 is generally orthogonal to an upper surface 32 of the clip 10 .
- the second dimple 18 has a shallow end 34 and a deep end 36 closer to a second end 38 of the clip 10 than the shallow end 34 ( FIG. 5 ).
- a wall 40 at the deep end 36 of the dimple 18 forms an abutting surface for catching the tool.
- the wall 40 is generally orthogonal to the upper surface 32 of the clip 10 .
- Each of the dimples 16 , 18 includes a rear surface 42 , 44 ( FIG. 2 ) configured to create friction with the pieces of strut to which the clip 10 is attached, as described below.
- the central portion 12 of the clip 10 also includes first and second pockets 50 , 52 to facilitate removal of the clip from the strut fitting attachment structure.
- a portion of the upper surface 32 adjacent the first end 28 of the clip 10 is raised to form the first pocket 50 for receiving the end of a tool (e.g., screwdriver).
- a portion of the upper surface 32 adjacent the second end 38 of the clip 10 is raised to form the second pocket 52 for receiving the end of a tool (e.g., screwdriver).
- Each pocket 50 , 52 is sized and shaped to receive the end of a flathead screwdriver.
- Each pocket 50 , 52 is tapered inward from its open end to generally conform to the shape of a flathead screwdriver.
- the clip 10 is configured for attachment to illustrated strut 56 .
- the strut 56 has an elongate body 58 extending along a longitudinal axis.
- the elongate body 58 has a generally square or rectangular cross-sectional shape having an upper side 60 , a lower side 62 , a right side 64 , and a left side 66 (each indicated generally).
- the upper side 60 defines a continuous slot 68 (i.e., the upper side is open).
- the upper side 60 has outside surfaces 70 on either side of the slot 68 , and inwardly (or downwardly) depending lips 72 leading to an open interior 74 of the strut 56 .
- Each fitting groove 78 is defined by opposing side walls 80 extending inwardly from generally planar outer surfaces 76 of the corresponding side 62 , 64 , 66 and toward the interior 74 of the body 58 ( FIG. 8 ).
- the side walls 80 extend to a bottom wall 82 that spans between and interconnects the side walls.
- the side walls 80 flare away from one another as they extend inward from the outer surfaces toward the bottom 82 of the fitting groove 78 so that each fitting groove has a generally dovetail cross-sectional shape.
- each fitting groove 78 has a first relatively narrower width (e.g., a minimum width) at its entrance and a second relatively wider width (e.g., a maximum width) adjacent the bottom wall 82 .
- the dimples 16 , 18 specifically the rear surfaces 42 , 44 thereof, engage the outside surfaces 76 of the pieces of strut 56 to create friction with the pieces of strut to enhance the connection. Engagement of the dimples 16 , 18 with the outside surfaces 76 also pushes the clip arms 14 into engagement with shoulders 86 of the fitting grooves 78 .
- the clip 10 may be configured to slide on side-by-side pieces of strut 56 by inserting the clip into the fitting grooves 78 at the open ends of the grooves at the ends of the strut.
- the clip 10 may be resiliently deflectable and configured as a snap-fit component so the clip arms 14 can be snapped directly into the fitting grooves 78 at an intermediate point between the ends of the pieces of strut 56 without accessing either end of the strut.
- the clip 10 may be snapped into position on side-by-side pieces of strut 56 at an intermediate point between the ends thereof by inserting one of the clip arms 14 into one of the fitting grooves 78 .
- a force in the direction of outside surfaces 76 of the side-by-side pieces of strut 56 is then applied to the central portion 12 , whereupon the free clip arm 14 and the central portion are resiliently deflected in a direction away from the outside surfaces of the pieces of strut.
- a continued application of force results in the free clip arm 14 sliding past the edge or shoulder 86 between the corresponding outside surface 76 and the flared side wall 80 defining the fitting groove 78 , whereupon the clip 10 rebounds to its non-deflected configuration, and the corresponding clip arm 14 snaps into the fitting groove.
- two pieces of strut 86 are brought together in side-by-side arrangement.
- the clip 10 is then snapped into the fitting grooves 78 of the pieces of strut 56 at any point between the ends of the strut.
- the clip 10 is snapped into the fitting grooves 78 such that the clip arms 14 extend into the fitting grooves and the elbows 84 engage of the clip arms engage the shoulders 86 of the fitting grooves.
- the clip 10 can be snapped into the fitting grooves 78 by initially bringing the first end 28 of the clip into engagement with the fitting grooves 78 , and then subsequently moving the second end 38 of the clip into engagement with the fitting grooves (see FIGS. 10-14 ).
- the clip 10 can be slid into the open ends of the fitting grooves 78 of the side-by-side pieces of strut 56 . Once the clip 10 is in position with the clip arms 14 extending into the fitting grooves 78 , the clip holds the two pieces of strut 56 together in side-by-side arrangement.
- the screwdriver is inserted into the second dimple 18 to use the wall 40 as a bearing surface for applying force to slide the clip in a direction toward the second end.
- the clip 10 can easily be moved to any desired location along the length of the pieces of strut.
- a user can insert a tool (e.g., flathead screwdriver) into one of the pockets 50 , 52 and use the tool to pry the clip off the pieces of strut.
- a tool e.g., flathead screwdriver
- the clip 10 can easily be removed if necessary. Removing the clip may cause no damage to either the clip 10 or the strut 56 , so the clip can be reused after removal.
- an additional clip 10 can be installed on the opposite side of the pieces of strut 56 to hold the other side of the strut together.
- multiple clips 10 can be attached to pieces of strut 56 along their length to interconnect two pieces of strut along their length if desired or necessary for additional support (see, e.g., FIG. 7 ). Additional pieces of strut 56 can be attached by additional clips 10 (not shown).
- the clip 10 is configured for engagement with and interconnection of two pieces of strut 56 having fitting grooves 78 .
- the clip permits a user to simply, efficiently, and cheaply attach pieces of strut to each other. Workers can easily snap the clip onto the pieces of strut.
- the position of the clip can quickly and easily be adjusted along the length of the pieces of strut with a screwdriver.
- the clip can also easily be removed from the pieces of strut with a screwdriver.
